PREFACE

1. MES Schedule of Rates 2016 (RATES AND SPECIFICATIONS) has been prepared under instructions and guidance of Engineer in Chief, Army Headquarters, Dhaka Cantonment to replace existing booklets - MES Schedule of Rates 2012 and Schedule for the Rate list of Furniture & the Rate list of conveyance of materials 2012. Besides updating the price, incorporation of modern technology was also taken into consideration to revise the schedule. Accordingly some items have been added/omitted. MKS system of measurement has been used in most of the places. Necessary conversion tables and data have been incorporated for consultation and ready reference.

2. The rates will be valid only if specifications given in the Schedule are strictly followed. However, if it is necessary to deviate from specifications, prior approval of the respective DW & CEs will be required. In case of disputes regarding application of any rate, the decision of E in C shall be final.

3. The specifications and rates will be valid till a new replacement is done. The rates will be reviewed from time to time. DW & CEs will forward proposed amendments with necessary data and analysis on 1st of January and July each year to E in C's Branch, who will arrange pre-audit, approval and will issue amendments, if considered necessary.

4. Reproduction in part or whole of this Schedule by any individual, Department, Contractor or Firm, etc. is prohibited. This Schedule may, however, be used by any individual, department, etc. provided the Contract Agreement makes a clear mention that the contract has been based on MES Schedule of Rates 2016.

5. We thank MES officers and staff who have worked whole heartedly to revise this MES Schedule of Rates 2016.

6. This schedule is supported by a programmed analysis of rates as per item of works.

7. Special thanks to E in C for his valuable guidelines to modernize the MES construction works and the furniture, who has also been kind enough to approve the MES Schedule of Rates 2016, which will be effective from 1st May 2016.

(3) All ingredients are to be mixed thoroughly. The mixer is kept for about 10 (ten) days until an adhesive/semisolid bond is developed among the ingredients. During this period whole mixer is turned twice/thrice and lime water is added as per requirement. Precaution is taken to save the materials from sun & rain.

(4) Before applying the terracing, the surface of the roof is cleaned and lime concrete is laid in single layer about 20% thicker than specified for consolidation with slope towards gutter.

(5) The lime concrete is then thoroughly consolidated by beating with wooden mallet. The beating is to be systematic by lengthwise. Movement of labourers from one end to other end on the entire width of the roof.

(6) While the beating of concrete is going on the surface of concrete is frequently sprinkled with lime water and a mixer of molasses, Catechu and boiled solution of Methi seeds for 9 sq.m surface area of 75mm (av) thickness, 50 Litre solution is taken. Solution is prepared by dissolving 4.0 kg of lime, 4.50 kg

(a) Dead knots 12.5mm in diameter and under may be neglected

provided they do not exceed two per 0.093sq.m of any of the surface and

those upto 19 mm diameter provided they do not exceed one per

0.093sq.m

(b) Knots should not occur in clusters.

(2) Timber shall be straight in the grain, but for curved members the timber should be so

selected that the grains conform to the shape of the member as far as possible.

(3) Moisture content of the timber should be 12% with tolerance of plus/minus 2%.

(4) Hard or soft wood will be used as specified on the drawing. Timber specified in the

particular specification will supersede the one specified in the drawing.

b. Classification of Timber. The following are the classes of the common timber.

(1) Drive number of screws into the edge of one plank with the heads to project a little above

the surface. Holes are bored at a distance of about 6mm in front of their actual final position in

the plank to be jointed to take the heads of the screws. Narrow channel of about 6mm in

length is to be cut in the second plank just wide enough to take the smooth shanks of the

screws. After gluing this, plank are so placed that the screw heads enter the holds in the other

piece and are then driven on from the end until it assumes its correct position. The heads of the

screws tend to work upwards as they cut channels for themselves and thus tighteen the joints.

(2) All joints and grooves of panels will be glued with best glue. Application of dewless when

specified is to be made from good quality bamboo. Screws used are to be of superior quality.

Nails will not be used unless specified.

works will be polished, varnished or painted as specified in the plank or in the particular

specification.

b. Polish.

(1) Primary coat of mixture of plaster of paris, water and adjusting colour to match wood will

be applied on hard wood and then sand papered to remove the materials not absorbed in the

grains of wood.

(2) Primary coat of mixture of glue, water and burnt senna will be applied on soft wood and

then sand papered to remove the excess materials.

(3) After preparation of the surface as stated above repeated application with molmol cloth

and cotton of polish of composition as under will be made on the outside (visible) surface of

the wood and finished of glossy surface. Sand papering will be done by sand papers No. ‘0’ after
